Abstract

The model Hamiltonian of a two-dimensional Bose liquid (proposed earlier by Kane, Kivelson, Lee and Zhang as the Hamiltonian which has Jastrow-type wavefunctions as the ground-state solution), is shown to possess nonrelativistic supersymmetry. For the special value of the coupling constant α=1/2\alpha=1/2 the quantum mechanics described by this Hamiltonian is shown to be equivalent to the dynamics of (complex) eigenvalues of random Gaussian ensemble of normal complex matrices. For general α\alpha, an exact relation between the equal-time current-current and density-density correlation functions is obtained, and used to derive an asymptotically exact (at low wavevectors q) spectrum of single-particle excitations beyond the superfluid ground-state (realized at low α\alpha's). The ground-state at very large α\alpha is shown to be of ``Quantum Hexatic" type, possessing long-range orientational order and quasi-long-range translational order but with zero shear modulus. Possible scenaria of the ground-state phase transitions as function of α\alpha are discussed.
